wheels are a bit odd, but if its genuine that ought to be gone quickly.

looks nice.

I know the seller of this car, and have seen the car. A nicer, more genuine fellow you could not meet. Not at all like a trader, very genuine and honest. The car has a whole lot of positives compared to many others, if you can look beyond the teledials.

£28k for a 120k mile 1984 B GOLD 3.2....not what I'd classify as as bargin.

915 box in my SC once it had warmed up was very good.
They are old cars so even the G50 which is agricultural by todays standards feels old.
915 box is also lighter so older 3.2's feel quicker.
I like the colour and the wheels its in keeping with the car and age, I was tempted to buy but have moved over to another brand think I've done them to death now (after 12 911's!!) _________________Known to be a bit of a 911 frequenter and all round good egg

that's what I call a list of porsches, maybe it is time for another brand.

if you looked at the whole journey that you have had in a financial sense, what has been the score regarding profit or loss with all these 911s.?

915 gearbox fine to drive, with as with most Porsche's one of the last things to be rebuilt by owners due to cost.
Same with a G50 they will need a rebuild eventually.
I had my 915 rebuild as my car is around 100k good time to do it. Then good for another 100k.
Either way you drive you pay for your pleasure.

They are what they are old classic Porsche's._________________EVERY MILE IS A SMILE

100k is way too soon, to be changing a gearbox. mine is 125k and works perfectly.

None of them were bought with a view of making money albeit been a tight Yorkshire man I didn't want lose anything either.
Suffice to say I have made money, but that was before they all became over-priced especially the older stuff, they're just ot worth the money people are willing to pay IMO, but hey fair play to the owners having their palms crossed with healthy profits._________________Known to be a bit of a 911 frequenter and all round good egg

Each gearbox is never the same,I have my own pre maintenance plan I use on my car.
I work my way around it before things go wrong.

I think it helps keep the car in top condition._________________EVERY MILE IS A SMILE

I love these cars in gold. Mine is a light metallic blue which I have just grown to love but when I bought it I wished it was gold.
